## Resource

The couch is feeling nostalgic this week as we get it up to 88mph and crash right back into 2007; back when rugby was a little looser, hydration meant extra Carlsberg and the dark arts held sway. We're taking a watch at the 6 Nations of old as we prep for this years tourney and digging into Italy vs. Scotland. The one at Murrayfield. Tocco is planted firmly in his Italian roots as he waxes poetically about watching this game years ago and Jones still somehow lets Scotland disappoint him. We've got Castro Giovanni in Dolce and Gabana, old school forwards making us think WE could have been a pro back in the day and somehow Ben Tameifuna is still catching strays. Grab your beer, meet us at Twin Pines Mall and lets all be confidently incorrect together as we relive Italy's glory day.
